I'm not a salsa singer who wants to sing in English, and I'm not this American kid who wants to sing Spanish.

It's still hard for me to understand, what is to me, the morbid fascination with celebrity. I just want to sing, I want to work on my music, I want to make my movies, that's all I want to do. I understand, you know, the interest but I really don't understand the fascination with it.

I come from a pop background, but I'm also a Puerto Rican and I do feel this music. My approach to salsa is a humble one, and I defy anybody to prove that I'm faking it.

I have always said that your work stays with you for a long time, and I try to get involved in projects where I truly believe if I had to do them again, I would the same way.

I think in general I've never dared compose in Spanish. First of all, it is such an intricate language.

I'm a huge sports fan.
